Why mad rush now?

Border Patrol apprehended 92,000 illegal aliens along the southwest border in March—consisting of 53,000 family units, 30,000 single adults, and 8,900 unaccompanied children.

A further 11,000 presented at ports of entry without documentation and were deemed inadmissible, bringing the March total to 103,000.

Ghosn warns Nissan will fail after 'dirty game' to oust him

(dragging this out for too long-just jail him and throw the key's away)

TOKYO – Carlos Ghosn has accused Nissan Motor executives of sacrificing the interests of the company by playing a "dirty game" to oust him as chairman, in a video statement recorded the day before he was arrested for the fourth time in Tokyo last week.

Although the former Nissan chairman originally cited the names of some executives who planned what he claims was a conspiracy against him, his defense team decided to cut them out of the video in a bid to remove legal risks, his lawyer said.

"I'm worried, because the performance of Nissan is declining and I don't think there is vision for the alliance being built," Ghosn said in the seven-minute video, which was made public by his defense lawyers on Tuesday.

Dressed in a suit and white shirt, Ghosn spoke calmly in the video and, while he did not mention any Nissan executives by name in his accusations, he was scathing about the direction the company was taking.

"Frankly, sitting around a table being consensual about a decision, this is not a vision in an industry as competitive as the car industry," he continued, describing Nissan's recent performance as "absolutely mediocre" and pointing to a decline in the share price. The stock price has declined about 7% since Ghosn was first arrested last November.

"You need to show the future," Ghosn continued. "People who say [leaderships is] either consensus or dictatorship, they don't know what leadership is about."April 09, 2019 15:16 JST Updated on April 09, 2019 19:56 JST

TOKYO – Carlos Ghosn has accused Nissan Motor executives of sacrificing the interests of the company by playing a "dirty game" to oust him as chairman, in a video statement recorded the day before he was arrested for the fourth time in Tokyo last week.

Although the former Nissan chairman originally cited the names of some executives who planned what he claims was a conspiracy against him, his defense team decided to cut them out of the video in a bid to remove legal risks, his lawyer said.

"I'm worried, because the performance of Nissan is declining and I don't think there is vision for the alliance being built," Ghosn said in the seven-minute video, which was made public by his defense lawyers on Tuesday.

Dressed in a suit and white shirt, Ghosn spoke calmly in the video and, while he did not mention any Nissan executives by name in his accusations, he was scathing about the direction the company was taking.

"Frankly, sitting around a table being consensual about a decision, this is not a vision in an industry as competitive as the car industry," he continued, describing Nissan's recent performance as "absolutely mediocre" and pointing to a decline in the share price. The stock price has declined about 7% since Ghosn was first arrested last November.

"You need to show the future," Ghosn continued. "People who say [leaderships is] either consensus or dictatorship, they don't know what leadership is about."

Ghosn said this "plot" was driven by "a few executives, who for their own interest and selfish fears, are creating a lot value destruction."

"Names? You know them. We are talking about people who played a very dirty game."

The remarks were Ghosn's boldest criticism against Nissan since his arrest in November. Nissan formally ended its 19-year relationship with the former executive when it voted to remove him from its board at an extraordinary shareholders meeting on Monday. Ghosn was rearrested for the fourth time last Thursday on fresh allegations of improperly using company funds, this time allegedly to pay an Omani distributor for his own benefit.

The Brazilian-born tycoon wrote on Twitter the day before his rearrest that he had planned to hold a press conference on April 11 to make his case. However, as a Tokyo court approved a request by prosecutors to detain him for 10 days for further questioning, the plan for the conference was no longer possible.

Ghosn had recorded the video message, "fearing prosecutors might hinder him from holding the press conference," according to Junichiro Hironaka, one of Ghosn's defense lawyers on Tuesday.

California DMV Refuses Fulham Fan License Plate Over Perceived ‘Racism’

That’s it, the world has officially gone off the rails. After chocolate ducks, chopsticks and bikinis can all be perceived as shocking or offensive to some SJW’s who complained about it, soccer fans have now been told that slogans which used to be ‘ok’ before are now perceived as ‘racist’ as well.

At play is Fulham FC, a British soccer team that’s been around for decades. They play in a white shirt and thus the shout from the stands has for ages been ‘come on you whites.’

Young fans, such as the one in the picture above, carry cardboard cuttings during the match to urge their team forward with the slogan.

A University of Southern California media professor asked the local DMV for a personalized license plate featuring ‘COYW’ which stands for ‘come on you whites’ and had to fill out a form explaining why he wanted those particular letters.

The DMV answered back saying that the ‘COYW’ letter anagram could therefore be perceived as ‘racist’ and refused his demand.

Prof Kotler claimed that he was told the COYW slogan could be considered hostile, insulting, or racially degrading, according to the US federal legal case.

“I sent them tons of material,” Prof Kotler said.

“Press releases, stories from the British media, letters from the chairman who uses ‘come on you whites’.

“I pointed out that many clubs in Britain are known by their colour – the blues, the clarets. Nobody thought the Liverpool reds were communists.”

“Even when I did it, it was the furthest thing from my mind that anyone would object to it. I was shocked, absolutely. Half of the team are non-white. And it’s just a shirt colour. It’s got nothing to do with anything other than that. I decided this is crazy, this is enough. I can take it up to a point but this became personal.”

Notable: Why media outlets around Oregon are 'breaking the silence' on suicide

Why media outlets around Oregon are 'breaking the silence' on suicide

For the next week, the Portland Business Journal and dozens of other media outlets around Oregon will be tackling a tough subject: suicide.

In 2017, more than 47,000 Americans died by suicide and half a million received medical care for self-inflicted injuries. Oregon’s suicide rate is about 36 percent higher than the national average. More than 800 Oregonians died by suicide last year.

These are grim statistics and suicide is clearly a major public health problem. But it’s not one that gets a lot of attention — or always the right kind of attention. Many newsrooms avoid reporting on suicides for fear of sparking a contagion effect.

But when a celebrity takes their own life, that tends to generate massive coverage. About 150 studies have shown an association between sensationalist portrayals of suicide in the mass media and increases in suicide in the population, according to Lines for Life, a Portland-based suicide prevention and substance abuse nonprofit.

Lines for Life held a summit last fall on how to walk that fine line and to report responsibly on suicide. Out of that meeting came the current project, called “Breaking the Silence,” which is running from April 7 to the 14 in 30 print and broadcast and student media organizations across the state.

Each story will have a different focus. The Business Journal is taking a look at two industries at high risk for suicide — construction and veterinary medicine. Both professions have their own set of stressors, both financial and cultural, and both are touched by the stigma that has traditionally surrounded mental health and suicide.

The good news is that there is a growing awareness of the problem that has led leaders in both fields to take action to save lives.

“Breaking the Silence” stories can be accessed here.

Aramco’s new bonds inch up in early trade: sources

DUBAI (Reuters) – Saudi Aramco’s newly issued dollar-denominated bonds inched up on Wednesday, with longer-dated paper outperforming, sources familiar with the matter said.

The company on Tuesday issued $12 billion worth of paper, disappointing much of the over $100 billion in demand.

Of the five tranches, the $3 billion 30-year bonds were the best performers, up by slightly over 1 cent, the sources said, while shorter-dated paper made more modest gains.

The sources said there would be a clearer picture of the bonds’ performance once markets in London and New York open later on Wednesday.

Notable: Tylenol may make you less empathetic to others' happiness

Tylenol may make you less empathetic to others' happiness

Taking acetaminophen - sold under the brand name Tylenol - may make it harder for us to feel happy for other people, new research suggests.

The common drug belongs to a group of analgesics that relieves pain - though we aren't really sure why.

Previous research confirmed that when acetaminophen is helping us feel less of our own pain, it makes us less empathetic to the pain of others.

Now, a followup study from Ohio University shows that the drug also makes us feel less empathetic toward the positive, pleasurable experiences of others.

Acetaminophen - also sold as Tylenol (pictured) and Paracetamol - reduces activity in parts of the brain that help us feel the pleasure of others and empathize with them, a new study finds

Painkillers are designed to address physical aches and pangs.

But our experience of pain is every bit as psychological as it is physiological.

And since we can't pop a pill to instantly heal a wound or mend a broken bone, analgesics aim to interfere with how we respond to pain, vis a vis the neurochemicals that communicate pain signals and inflammation.

But acetaminophen is special, and still poorly understood.

The latest theories suggest that the the drug may target endocannabinoid system (the one that responds to marijuana) and serotonin receptors.

However it works, acetaminophen does work, and is the third-leading over-the-counter painkiller.

Inside NXIVM, the New York 'sex cult' that drew in Smallville actress Allison Mack

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2019/04/10/inside-nxivm-new-york-sex-cult-actress-allison-mack-drawn-secretive/

The highly successful Hollywood actress did not appear to be a lost soul. Allison Mack was seen by friends on the set of Smallville, the drama about Superman’s early years, as open, friendly, and highly professional. For 10 years she played Clark Kent’s best friend – a sought-after role in a hit show, and the culmination of years of work as a child actor and model in Germany, where she was born.

But by 2010, as Smallville’s run was coming to an end, she was looking for answers.

She found them with Keith Raniere.

New York-born Mr Raniere, now 58, had founded in the early 1990s an organisation called NXIVM, which offered “executive success programmes” and self-help therapies.

“NXIVM is a community guided by humanitarian principles that seek to empower people and answer important questions about what it means to be human,” the company’s website still says.

There was more to those “humanitarian principles” than meets the eye, however.

Mr Raniere is now in jail in New York City, awaiting his trial on charges of running a “sex cult”. Mack has pleaded guilty to racketeering and forced labour charges, and faces 40 years in prison when sentenced in September.

“I have come to the conclusion that I must take full responsibility for my conduct and that’s why I am pleading guilty today,” she said, sobbing in court on April 8. Her distress was such that Judge Nicholas Garaufis paused proceedings to ask if she was able to continue.

“I’m very sorry for the victims of this case,” she added.

“I’m very sorry for who I’ve hurt through my misguided adherence to Keith Raniere’s teachings.”

Mr Raniere, a Svengali-like figure, wielded immense power over the estimated 16,000 people – many of them young women - who flocked to his seminars.

Mack previously credited Mr Raniere with helping her reach a new level with her acting after Smallville ended, encouraging her to try theatre.

She explained in 2015 that she was drawn to the enlightenment he promised. After hearing about him from a friend, she recalled, “I was like: ‘That sounds pretty cool.’ I trusted my friend, I took one of his workshops and I really was moved by the perspective that I gained.

"I started to see what I was missing, that I thought I would get from success, was a joyful inner world.”

In early 2017, she elaborated further.

"I have a wonderful teacher and mentor named Keith Raniere, who really gave me some incredible guidance," she said.

"I think everyone needs a mentor. I don't think any of us really know the answers without a little bit of wisdom. If you aren't willing to be humble enough to seek wisdom from other people, I think you're missing a lot of really incredible opportunities to build a certain amount of depth and value in your life that you wouldn't have if you didn't have somebody to help guide you.

“I chose to have this mentor in my life, and I was talking to him about my struggle, confusion, and not knowing what to do. He said, 'Why don't you take some time and think about? Give yourself some space to figure out who you are now.' So that's what I did."

Some of the women who attended sessions – among them Mack’s co-star in Smallville, actress Kristin Kreuk – did indeed find the courses helpful.

"When I was about 23, I took an Executive Success Programs/NXIVM 'intensive,' what I understood to be a self-help/personal growth course that helped me handle my previous shyness, which is why I continued with the programme," Ms Kreuk wrote on social media, after Mr Raniere's arrest, and before Mack was indicted.

"I left about five years ago and had minimal contact with those who were still involved.”

She added that she never witnessed anything unusual.

Race in America 2019

Blacks are more likely than Hispanics or Asians — and much more likely than whites — to say that their race is central to their identity. About three-quarters of black adults say being black is extremely (52%) or very (22%) important to how they think of themselves; 59% of Hispanics and 54% of Asians say being Hispanic or Asian, respectively, is at least very important to their overall identity, with about three-in-ten in each group saying it’s extremely important. In contrast, just 15% of whites say being white is very or extremely important to how they think of themselves; about two-thirds say it’s either only a little important (18%) or not important at all (47%).

Whites and blacks younger than 30 are less likely than their older counterparts to say their race is at least very important to their overall identity. Some 64% of black adults ages 18 to 29 say being black is at least very important, compared with roughly three-quarters or more among older age groups. And while relatively few whites across age groups say being white is central to how they think about themselves, whites younger than 30 are among the least likely to say so.

Among Hispanics, those born abroad are more likely than those born in the U.S. to say being Hispanic is at least very important to how they think of themselves (65% vs. 52%).

Notable: In a plea deal, Cosko said he worked with an accomplice. Re: massive data theft

Second Hassan Staffer Allegedly Helped Aide Steal Massive Amounts Of Senate Data

A former Senate IT aide to Sen. Maggie Hassan, Jackson Cosko, admitted he stole tens of thousands of documents, credit card numbers, Social Security numbers and the contents of the entire network drive from the New Hampshire Democrat.

Cosko allegedly used stolen private data about senators to “doxx” Republicans during the Brett Kavanaugh hearings.

In a plea deal, Cosko — whom Hassan had fired for other misconduct before the theft — said he worked with an accomplice who helped him gain access and wiped his fingerprints.

A court case has been opened against Samantha DeForest-Davis, a former Hassan aide who a source with knowledge of the situation said is the alleged accomplice.

A second onetime aide to Sen. Maggie Hassan is implicated in former IT staffer Jackson Cosko’s massive data-theft scheme that was ultimately used to “intimidate” Republican senators by “doxxing” them during a confirmation hearing for Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, prosecutors said.

Samantha G. DeForest-Davis, at the time a staff assistant to Hassan, was the aide who allegedly helped Cosko conduct his scheme, a source with knowledge of the situation told The Daily Caller News Foundation. Court records show a case naming her has been opened, and the source confirmed it relates to her alleged role in the data theft. She filed an affidavit that can be used to assess her eligibility for a public defender, but she has not been charged with any crimes, court records show.

Cosko pleaded guilty April 5 to masterminding what prosecutors said was “an extraordinarily extensive data-theft scheme, copying entire network drives, sorting and organizing sensitive data, and exploring ways to use that data to his benefit.” He admitted to stealing tens of thousands of documents and emails from Hassan’s office, in addition to credit card information and Social Security numbers belonging to Senate employees. The data also included a master list of senators’ private information that Cosko posted to Wikipedia out of “anger” at Republicans during the Supreme Court nomination hearings, prosecutors said. Cosko’s lawyer said drugs contributed to his admitted crimes. But a statement of facts prosecutors filed as part of Cosko’s plea agreement describes an elaborate, months-long scheme involving two people. The data was stolen from Hassan’s office in months of late-night burglaries between July and October 2018 after Cosko was fired that May for different misconduct that Hassan, a New Hampshire Democrat, has declined to explain, according to the statement.

DeForest-Davis — identified in court documents only as SUBJECT A — allegedly repeatedly provided Cosko a key that he used to enter the office at night and install tiny devices that capture every keystroke, including passwords that were then used to access further materials, according to the statement. After Cosko was caught in the act by a Hassan staffer in October 2018, the accomplice went to the office and wiped down keyboards and mice to erase any fingerprints, prosecutors said. On Jan. 24, prosecutors said “the defendant is cooperating,” though they noted “the government isn’t convinced that he is fully cooperative.” Six days earlier, a case called USA vs. DeForest-Davis was opened in D.C. federal court. Cosko was let out on bail the next month.

DeForest-Davis has not been charged with any crimes, but the court records show she filed a CJA 23 Financial Affidavit. Court records in unrelated cases show that a CJA 23 Financial Affidavit can serve two purposes: to establish whether someone facing or expecting to face charges qualifies for a public defender, and — since it is an outlining of one’s finances submitted under penalty of perjury — to prosecute the person for lying in order to hide money he or she had received. DeForest-Davis did not respond to a request for comment.

Intel Officials Fear China Will Target Globe's Underwater Internet Cables

A new op-ed in Bloomberg Quint has noted what the United States should really be worried about regarding Beijing's intentions after a year of tense China-US Navy encounters in the South China Sea. This potential threat, which is "far harder to discern," involves the world's some 380 underwater cables carrying more than 95% of all data and voice traffic between the continents. Could China be stealthily hacking them? It is certainly now in a better position to do so. The piece details how the Chinese conglomerate Huawei Technologies — already at the center of a broader US-China dispute over theft of trade secrets and unlawful dealings with sanctioned regimes like Iran — now has contracts to construct or improve nearly 100 submarine cables globally. In what sounds like a quick pivot away from now deflated 'Russiagate' (which seemed to also involve bi-monthly articles suggesting Putin was ever ready to cut the world's submerged internet cables), western intelligence officials are now sounding the alarm over Beijing's increased access and influence over such key global communications infrastructure.

The report summarizes the view of "Western intelligence professionals" in the following: Just as the experts are justifiably concerned about the inclusion of espionage “back doors" in Huawei’s 5G technology, Western intelligence professionals oppose the company’s engagement in the undersea version, which provides a much bigger bang for the buck because so much data rides on so few cables. The report notes further that last year Huawei Marine Networks in a joint project with China Unicorn, a state-controlled telecom operator, successfully laid a cable running nearly 4,000 miles from Brazil to Cameroon, and there's plans for greater involvement in global internet traffic cables which would necessitate cooperating and in some case competing with US internet giants such as Google and Facebook, who lease or buy vast cable networks from companies that constructed them, whether private or state-owned. The WSJ observed last month, "Chinese company Huawei is embedding itself into cable systems that ferry nearly all of the world’s internet data."

Amidst the debate and resulting US official restriction on federal agencies using Huawai's 5G equipment for fear of vulnerability to Chinese hacking, underwater internet infrastructure constructed by Huawai could prove the most sensitive global backdoor. The report continues: Naturally, Huawei denies any manipulation of the cable sets it is constructing, even though the US and other nations say it is obligated by Chinese law to hand over network data to the government. A similar dynamic is playing out underwater. How can the US address the security of undersea cables? There is no way to stop Huawei from building them, or to keep private owners from contracting with Chinese firms on modernizing them, based purely on suspicions. Rather, the US must use its cyber- and intelligence-gathering capability to gather hard evidence of back doors and other security risks. This will be challenging — the Chinese firms are technologically sophisticated and entwined with a virtual police state.

One of the more bizarre scenarios that the report floats is the possibility of submarines to "tap" the cables externally. This has long been discussed among military and intelligence analysts regarding Russia, but increasingly Beijing will come under scrutiny. One of those analysts, US Admiral Jamie Foggo, identified as a career submariner, told Bloomberg Quint: “Underwater cables are part of our critical infrastructure and essential to the global economy. The US must protect the integrity and security of them as surely as we provide international freedom of the high seas."

Former Trump official: Nielsen was 'obstructionist' who wouldn't fire 'deep state' employees in DHS

Outgoing Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen triggered her own demise by refusing to fire a pair of agency officials that were slow-walking President Trump's immigration agenda, says a former administration official who worked with all three people. "I think she was an obstructionist to getting rid of the bad people," the official, who asked to speak on background in order to speak openly, said in a phone call with the Washington Examiner Tuesday. The official specially mentioned the department's General Counsel John Mitnick and Citizenship and Immigration Services Director L. Francis Cissna — both of whom have been reported to be next on Trump's chopping block. Their departures would follow what's already been nearly a week of upheaval at DHS. In addition to getting rid of Nielsen, Trump rescinded the nomination of acting ICE Director Ronald Vitiello and terminated Secret Service Director Randolph Alles from his position.

Mitnick and Cissna are under scrutiny for not aggressively pursuing Trump's approach to stopping illegal immigration along the U.S.-Mexico border. Both are holdovers from the DHS of John Kelly, who headed the department for the Trump administration's first six months or so, before becoming the president's chief of staff. "When Kelly left, they never took the bad people with them. Everyone makes bad hiring decisions, [but] you don’t leave them on." The former official named Mitnick as the "reason why most of the immigration policies from DHS never came to fruition." Mitnick, in particular, is getting blame from Trump allies for details implementing a 2015 court ruling mandating that children who arrive at the border with parents cannot be held more than 20 days in Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody.

A DHS official slammed the allegations. “Outside voices criticizing the department’s general counsel for working to assiduously to follow the law while implementing the president’s security first agenda likely know little about the law, and less about homeland security," the official said. Trump administration officials contend the court ruling is the reason why record-high numbers of Central American families have traveled to and illegally entered the country at the U.S.-Mexico border. That's because DHS lacks the space and legal ability to hold people for the duration of their asylum hearings.

The official said Mitnick's office is sorting through comments and making small changes to the language, but that it should not take two years to do. "John Mitnick got really good at letting this career and bureaucracy overwhelm him. You need someone that’s going to be a fierce defender of what we’re doing in the Trump administration, not someone who’s gong to let the deep state run everything," the official said.

Cissna, meanwhile, likely hurt his own cause by having his office issue permits for those who illegally entered the U.S. to obtain work documents while they await asylum decisions, 90 percent of which are denied. "He’s part of the reason we have a flood at the border," the official added.

But the DHS official broke with the rogue official again. “Director Cissna has restored USCIS’ focus on national security, economic prosperity, and protecting U.S. workers. He has taken numerous steps to end illegal or inappropriate benefit programs and brought integrity to the immigration application process. He has wide support from conservatives on the Hill and in the homeland security community," the DHS official said. USCIS referred the Washington Examiner to a March list that cites 10 examples of how the agency is "improving the integrity" of the immigration system. The agency's list touted ways it says it has enhanced fraud detection among visa applicants and transparency among employment-based visa applicants."

Jim Jordan, Mark Meadows discussed FISA abuse investigation with DOJ inspector general

Two Republican lawmakers met with Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz on Tuesday and discussed the yearlong Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act abuse investigation. During an interview on Fox News, Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, said Horowitz told him and Rep. Mark Meadows, R-N.C., he "expects" a report on his investigation into possible FISA abuse by the DOJ and FBI "in May or June." That confirmed what Attorney General William Barr testified earlier in the day to a congressional panel.

Horowitz announced the initiation of the FISA abuse investigation in March 2018 after requests from both then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Republican members in Congress. The lawmakers claimed the Justice Department and FBI had abused the FISA process and misled the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court in their investigation and surveillance of President Trump and his associates during the campaign, as well as during the Trump administration.

Onetime Trump campaign aide Carter Page was the subject of a FISA warrant and three renewals. Pointing to Horowitz's findings in regards to misconduct by former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, Jordan said, "We expect the inspector general to do the good work that he's always done."

Both Jordan and Meadows also heaped praise on Barr. Jordan said Barr "handled himself professionally" during his hearing Tuesday, which was meant to focus on the DOJ's proposed budget but got sidetracked by Russia investigation questions, and Meadows called him "extremely diligent." Meanwhile, their colleague, House Intelligence Committee ranking member Devin Nunes, R-Calif., is expected to send Barr this week criminal referrals targeting eight people tied to the origins of the Trump-Russia investigation. "The right move from @DevinNunes. More criminal referrals to come. And certainly more deserved. Overwhelming evidence shows multiple FBI + DOJ executives abused their power to undermine a duly elected President Trump. They will be held accountable," Meadows tweeted earlier in the week.

Healthcare execs blame drug makers for high drug costs

April 9 (UPI) – Executives from some of the largest U.S. healthcare providers pointed a finger at pharmaceutical companies Tuesday, saying they're responsible for rising and high costs of drugs in the United States. At a hearing before the Senate finance committee, executives from CVS Health, Cigna, Prime Therapeutics, Humana and OptumRx told lawmakers what they believe are the greatest factors. They said drug companies profiting off patients, such as the increasing cost of insulin, is a primary concern.

They also said rebates paid to pharmacy benefit managers, or PBMs, are not the cause. "Pharmaceutical manufacturers insist that drug price increases are driven by rebates [to PBMs]," Derica Rice, executive vice president of CVS Health, said in prepared testimony. "This is simply not the case. If that was the case, rebates and list prices should be highly correlated. "To the contrary, data show that in many cases list prices are increasing faster for drugs with smaller rebates than for medications with substantial rebates.

Appearing in February before the same Senate committee, pharmaceutical executives from giants like Johnson & Johnson, Merck and Bristol-Myers Squibb, squarely put the blame of rising drug prices on the rebates. Optum Rx CEO John Prince told lawmakers Tuesday PBMs often negotiate with pharma companies to drive the cost down, and it's the drug makers who set the prices. "Drug manufacturers have continued to increase the prices of their branded drugs," he said. "List prices have increased on the 20 most-prescribed brand drugs for seniors by an average of 12 percent each of the past five years. "Drug manufacturers alone decide what list price to set for their branded products. If market conditions permit Optum Rx to negotiate better prices for a particular branded product, then we do so."'''

Humana executive William Fleming echoed the claim. "A major factor contributing to the increase in drug spending is the list price of prescription drugs," he said. "Drug manufacturers raise list prices to boost their revenue." Lawmakers have made repeated efforts in recent months to nail down the cause of high drug prices, and it's also been a stated priority of President Donald Trump's. Some in Congress have described the rebate processes as secret, backroom deals that bear much of the blame. "We're all about getting the best possible price for patients,'" Sen. Ron Wyden said. "Bottom line, PBMs are middlemen who strike deals with drugmakers in secret. In my experience, that kind of negotiation rarely results in an act of charity for consumers."

An F-35A stealth fighter belonging to the Japan Air Self-Defence Force's (JASDF) fleet reportedly disappeared from radars on Tuesday, 135 kilometers (84 miles) east of the Misawa Air Base located in the country's northern Aomori prefecture.

The JASDF said Wednesday it has found what could be debris from the missing fighter jet, according to broadcaster NHK.

The Air Self Defense Force (ASDF) spokesman told Reuters Wednesday that the pilot of the aircraft, however, is still missing. "We recovered the wreckage and determined it was from the F-35", the spokesman told Reuters. The F-35 was less than a year old and was delivered to the ASDF in May last year, he added, cited by Reuters.

Heads Up! – New York Times Advanced Narrative Move: IG Office Investigating Stefan Halper…

Posted on April 9, 2019 by sundance

Something is coming… something delicious. How can we tell? Well, whenever a bombshell is about to drop on the corrupt Intelligence Community, the New York Times does a quick narrative dump to get out ahead of the story.

All the way down, buried deep, in a NYT story about Inspector General Michael Horowitz’s FISA investigation and AG Barr’s review of DOJ and FBI activity… they drop the following two paragraphs (emphasis mine):

[…] The inspector general is also scrutinizing another early source of information for the Russia investigation, the people said: Mr. Horowitz’s investigators have been asking questions about the role of Stefan A. Halper, another F.B.I. informant, and his prior work for the bureau.

Agents involved in the Russia investigation asked Mr. Halper, an American academic who teaches in Britain, to gather information on Mr. Page and George Papadopoulos, another former Trump campaign foreign policy adviser. (read more)

Oh? NYT now saying FBI agents asked help from intelligence asset Stefan Halper to go gather information on Carter Page and George Papadopoulos?

Six months ago the New York Times was calling people ‘conspiracy theorists’ for pointing out how the CIA and FBI were using overseas intelligence officials to run up against the Trump campaign. Now they just drop it in their column as ‘meh‘, all casual like…. running spies into political campaigns, well, it happens all the time… or something. Obviously they are shaping and dumping their narratives and quietly trying walking away.

The bigger question the Times avoids is: “FBI Agents involved in the Russia investigation asked Mr. Halper to gather information on Page & Papadopulos” predicated on what?

What’s the underlying evidence that would inspire the FBI to request Stefan Halper to spy on American citizens connected to the Trump campaign? What’s the reason?

These contacts took place prior to July 31st, 2016, when Crossfire Hurricane began; so they are not part of the ‘official‘ FBI investigation… because these requests would have come before the investigation began… so what gives?

What’s the predicate for such a request?

The FBI has a “Brennan” problem. CIA Director John Brennan organized foreign intelligence assets to run against the Trump campaign March through July 2016 to help construct Brennan’s “EC” memo that he gave to James Comey to initiate the official start of the FBI counterintelligence operation.

As soon as The New York Times mentions the name Professor Joseph Mifsud in the same way as Professor Stefan Halper the gig is up.

Taiwan calls for US commitment as China turns up heat

Tsai Ing-wen lauds historic ties ahead of 40th anniversary of Taiwan Relations Act.

BEIJING/TAIPEI – Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen on Tuesday sought greater American involvement in helping to ensure the island's security as China ratchets up military pressure.

Wednesday marks 40 years since the U.S. enacted the Taiwan Relations Act, which promotes commercial and cultural relations with the island even after Washington established diplomatic ties with mainland China. In the weeks ahead of the anniversary, China engaged in jet flybys across a de facto maritime border with Taiwan and issued a veiled threat of a strike.

Through the Taiwan Relations Act, the U.S. Congress "made sure that Taiwan would survive its darkest hour and have the opportunity to transform itself into the free society and robust democracy we are today," Tsai said in a Tuesday video call to an event hosted by the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington.

The act reflects "the United States' commitment to our shared interests of peace, security and stability in the Pacific," Tsai said.

She raised alarms over Chinese military overtures, which she said were detrimental to regional peace and stability. Tsai expressed hopes of further arms sales to Taiwan to help the island defend itself.

"I hope that the United States can make clear at a very senior level that it considers the security of Taiwan vital to the defense of democracy," she said.

Cross-strait tensions have been on the rise since late last month, starting with Tsai's March 27 meeting with a Hawaii National Guard general while returning home from a Pacific tour. On March 31, China flew two fighters over to the Taiwanese side of the maritime border in the Taiwan Strait.

It is "possible" that the Chinese military will carry out targeted strikes on a Taiwanese military base, the Chinese Communist Party-affiliated Global Times said in an editorial last week.

Beijing considers the mainland and Taiwan part of "One China" and rejects the existence of the median line. The March 31 crossing was initially considered an accident, but the Global Times editorial suggests that it may have been intentional.

"We make no promise to renounce the use of force and reserve the option of taking all necessary means," Chinese President Xi Jinping had said in a January speech, departing from immediate predecessor Hu Jintao's silence on the topic.

Notable: Leaked Google Memos Reveal Aggressive "News Blacklist" Used Against Conservative Sites

Leaked Google Memos Reveal Aggressive "News Blacklist" Used Against Conservative Sites

Leaked internal documents reveal that Google maintains a blacklist preventing certain news outlets from appearing in search results for news or other specific sections, according to the Daily Caller's J. Arthur Bloom.

What this means is that while search results from blacklisted outlets will still appear in the generic "ten blue links" portion of search results - targeted sites will not be allowed in sections such as "top news" or "videos," according to the report.

"The purpose of the blacklist will be to bar the sites from surfacing in any Search feature or news product. It will not cause a demotion in the organic search results or de-index them altogether," reads the policy document.

Of note, Zero Hedge was removed from Google's News category after the 2016 US election.

According to the Caller, the blacklist includes several conservative websites, including Gateway Pundit, Conservative Tribune (a subsidiary of the Western Journal), American Spectator and more, for violating the search giant's "misrepresentation policy" and "good neighbor policy."

Two official policies dubbed the “misrepresentation policy” and the “good neighbor policy” inform the company’s “XPA news blacklist,” which is maintained by Google’s Trust & Safety team. “T&S will be in charge of updating the blacklist as when there is a demand,” reads one of the documents shared with The Daily Caller.

“The deceptive_news domain blacklist is going to be used by many search features to filter problematic sites that violate the good neighbor and misrepresentation policies,” the policy document says. -Daily Caller

One week before Google CEO Sundar Pichai testified before the House Judiciary Committee on December 11 of last year, a memo about the deceptive news blacklist circulated which describes how a site can be put on the list manually.

“The beginning of the workflow starts when a website is placed on a watchlist which is used for monitoring of sites to determine if they violate the Good Neighbor Policy. This watchlist is maintained and stored by Ares with access restricted to policy & enforcement specialists working on the Good Neighbor Policy. Access to the listing can also be shared at the discretion of pcounsel and legal investigations on a need to know basis to enforce or enrich the policy violations. The investigation of the watchlist is done in the tool Athena, the Ares manual review tool, and intakes signals from Search, Webspan, and Ares in order to complete reviews. … Once a domain is determined to be violating the misrepresentation policy or the Good Neighbor Policy, such patterns are then added to deceptive_news_blacklist_domains.txt by the Trust & Safety team.”

While the memo clearly states that there is a manual process involved, Google danced around the claim in a statement issued after the Caller's piece was published.

"We do not manually determine the order of any search result, nor do our algorithms or policies attempt to make any judgement on the political leanings of a website," the statement reads. "Our Google News inclusion policies are publicly available online. They provide guidelines on content and behaviors for matters like sponsored content, deceptive practices, and more. Sites that do not adhere to these policies are not eligible to appear on news surfaces or in information boxes in Search. These policies do not impact the way these sites appear in organic blue-link Google Search results."

Notable: The Army Wants AI to Read Soldiers’ Minds

WOW!

The Army Wants AI to Read Soldiers’ Minds.

A new study from the Army Research Lab may help AI-infused weapons and tools better understand their human operators.

In World War II, the Allies had a big problem. Germany’s new bombers moved too quickly for the anti-aircraft methods of the previous war, in which soldiers used range tables and hand calculations to line up their guns. Mathematician Norbert Wiener had a theory: the only way to defeat the German aircraft was to merge the gun and its human operators — not physically but perceptually, through instruments. As Weiner explained in the video below, that meant “either a human interpretation of the machine, or a machine interpretation of the operator, or both.” This was the only way to get the gun to fire a round on target — not where the plane was but where it was going to be. This theoretical merger of human and machine gave rise to the field of cybernetics, derived from the Greek term cyber, to steer, and the English term net, for network.

In the modern context, the merger of the human and the machine has taken on a new importance in the planning of warfare, especially as the U.S. and other militaries move forward with ever more autonomous weapons that function with the ruthless speed and efficiency of electronica but still require human supervision and control.

“Part of our vision is closing the loop between the system and the warfighter,” Mike LaFiandra, chief of the dismounted warrior branch at Army Research Laboratory, or ARL, said at a 2017 NDIA event. Let the system understand what’s happening with the warfighter, make that more a symbiotic relationship where the system is predicting based on this warfighter’s physiology, And the system knows because its been training with him for years, this is what we expect is going to happen soon and this is the specific mitigation strategy that that warfighter needs to do better.”

Army scientists last week published a new study in the journal Science Advances, showing the future of that exchange, the ability of machines to better understand their operators’ thoughts and intent based on what the operator’s brain is doing. The study explores how the brain shifts to different states, from distracted to ordered and aware, based on how different its regions are behaving and communicating with one another.

In particular, the paper looks at how the brain arrives at “chimera states,” in which several of its regions are focused on one task.

There is no good or bad chimera state, according to Jean Vettel, a co-author and senior neuroscientist at the ARL’s Combat Capabilities Development Command. But the chimera states do differ in terms of what’s optimal for different environments.

An optimal chimera state is one where the right parts of the brain are doing the right thing at the right time. Vettel compared it to when a person walks into a restaurant (the brain is the restaurant) and the hostess, the waiter, and the busboys are all focused, operating in sync, around the task of getting the person seated at a clean table, with a menu in hand, bread on the table, etc. The kitchen staff will have a role to play later and that’s when their undivided attention and focus will be important. But not at first. When things are synchronized properly, all the regions are focused on the right thing at the right time.

The work sought to show how “dynamical states give rise to variability in cognitive performance, providing the first conceptual framework to understand how chimera states may subserve human behavior.”

Understanding those alignments between the kitchen and the waitstaff and the customer is key to getting humans and computers to work together, which is critical to where the military wants human-machine teaming to go.

The goal isn’t just to understand how chimera states emerge generally, it’s to better map how they emerge in individuals, since all people are different. That’s what is going to make future AI-enabled assistants effective partners, whether asa targeting aids in a tank or software to sort through hundreds of hours of video-footage and tip off a human analyst when something important shows up. These future artificial entities will need to be able to read their individual human operators in a way that machines don’t today, since no two brains synchronize regions or transition between states in exactly the same way.

Shanahan Touts Unity in Space-Force Pitch, But Disagreements Clearly Remain.

It’s a key week for proponents of the Trump administration’s space reorganization — and their detractors.

COLORADO SPRINGS, COLORADO — This was supposed to be a week in which Pentagon leaders would “share our thinking and lay out our unified, whole-of-government plan to ensure U.S. leadership” in space.

But less than an hour after Acting Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan uttered those words, It became clear that deep disagreements remain about how to reorganize the U.S. military’s orbital operations.

In her own speech here, Air Force Secretary Heather Wilson warned about new plans to launch clouds of inexpensive satellites to augment larger ones that are more capable, yet ostensibly more vulnerable to jamming, cyber attack, or destruction by China and Russia.

“Launching hundreds of cheap satellites from the Earth as a supplement for the complex architectures where we provide…will result in failure on America’s worst day,” Wilson said.

She did not mention the new Space Development Agency by name, but her target was obvious to most of the thousands of military and commercial space professionals gathered at the annual Space Symposium.

Sad News.

2 veterans die by suicide at VA hospitals in GA over weekend.

Two veterans took their own lives in Georgia VA hospitals in non-related incidents over the weekend.

These two suicides come in the midst of an increasing number of veteran suicides and what the VA said is its “highest clinical priority,” the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported.

The first of the two suicides occurred Friday at the Carl Vinson VA Medical Center in Dublin in a parking garage. The second suicide happened Saturday at the Atlanta VA Medical Center in Decatur just outside the main entrance.

The VA has not yet released any information about the identity of either victim yet, however, an email from VA to the Georgia Department of Veterans Service did disclose that the Atlanta suicide victim was administered aid by the clinical staff and taken to Grady Memorial Hospital where he was pronounced dead on arrival.

The email also stated, “This incident remains under investigation and we are working with the local investigating authorities. The family has been contacted and offered support.”

An undisclosed source said the victim was a 68-year-old male who had shot himself.

“Suicide prevention is VA’s highest clinical priority. We are working alongside dozens of partners, including [the Department of Defense], to deploy suicide prevention programming that supports all current and former service members — even those who do not come to VA for care,” the VA said in a statement to the AJC.

Back in 2013, audits at the VA hospital in Decatur connected negligence to the suicides of four veterans there who were denied mental health access.

From Oct. 2017 to Nov. 2018, there were 19 suicides on VA campuses, seven of which took place in VA hospital parking lots.

Eric Caine, director of the Injury Control Research Center for Suicide Prevention at the University of Rochester, said, “It’s very important for the VA to recognize that the place of a suicide can have great meaning. There is a real moral imperative and invitation here to take a close inspection of the quality of services at the facility level.”

From USNews. An excerpt near the end of the article: 

The magazine's examination found violations of basic policies outlined in Secret Service training manuals. For instance, the agency's Special Investigation and Security manual says that when it comes to job applicants or senior officials, "extramarital sexual relationships are of concern in suitability or security determinations," especially giving access to "sensitive compartmentalized information" or highly classified information. The manual warns that such relationships, from a security standpoint, "can be important when the potential for undue influence or duress exists." Special Agent A. T. Smith was the head of Hillary Rodham Clinton's White House detail after serving on the Presidential Protective Detail (PPD). According to several sources and a divorce pleading filed by Smith's wife at the time alleging adultery, Smith was conducting a widely known extramarital relationship with Catherine Cornelius, President Clinton's cousin. Cornelius worked in the White House scheduling office around the time of the Monica Lewinsky affair. Smith accompanied Cornelius to numerous White House social events and eventually married her after the divorce from his wife. Smith declined a request for comment

Italy’s government is pushing ahead with new laws challenging the central bank’s control of the country’s reserves. Rome is calling for public ownership of the nation’s gold.

The ruling coalition of the anti-establishment 5-Star Movement and the League parties proposed two bills that have evoked nationwide controversy over the country’s long-standing financial and monetary system. One draft law may, reportedly, oblige the central bank’s owners to sell their shares to the Italian Treasury at prices from the 1930s, while the second law is set to declare Italian nationals to be the owners of the Bank of Italy’s reserves.

“The gold belongs to the Italians, not to the bankers. We are ready to battle everywhere in Italy and to bring Italians to the streets if necessary,” said Giorgia Meloni, leader of the Brothers of Italy opposition party, as quoted by the Wall Street Journal.

Candace Owens explodes at Ted Lieu mid-hearing after he plays short clip of her Hitler comments…

Tensions at a heated House Judiciary Committee hearing on online hate speech boiled over on Tuesday, when conservative commentator Candace Owens accused Rep. Ted Lieu, D-Calif., of distorting her comments on Hitler so flagrantly for the sake of a smear that he must "believe black people are stupid."

“In congressional hearings, the minority party gets to select its own witnesses," Lieu began. "Of all the people the Republicans could’ve selected, they picked Candace Owens. I don’t know Miss Owens; I’m not going to characterize her; I’m going to let her own words talk.”

Lieu then produced a cellphone and played a short clip of Owens' previous remarks at a conference in December, which were widely circulated in February: “I actually don't have any problem with the word 'nationalism.' I think the defintion gets poisoned by elites that want globalism. Globalism is what I don't want. When we say ‘nationalism,’ the first thing people think about — at least in America — is Hitler. You know, he was a national socialist, but if Hitler just wanted to make Germany great and have things run well, OK then, fine. The problem is, he had dreams outside of Germany. He wanted to globalize. He wanted everyone to be German. …"

Owens' remarks echoed those of President Trump, who has repeatedly defended nationalism against progressive attacks that the concept is intrinsically racist.

Lieu then asked committee witness Eileen Hershenov: “When people try to legitimize Adolf Hitler, does that feed into white nationalist ideology?”

But Owens soon made clear she felt Lieu had intentionally misrepresented her views to drive a false narrative not just against Owens, but also Trump and Republicans in general.

“I think it’s pretty apparent that Mr. Lieu believes that black people are stupid and will not pursue the full clip in its entirety,” Owens said.

Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler, D-NY., interrupted, telling Owens, “It is not proper to refer disparagingly to a member of the committee. The witness will not do that again.”

After clarifying that she had not, in fact, called Lieu stupid, Owens continued: "As I said, he is assuming that black people will not go and pursue the full two-hour clip. He purposefully cut off – and you didn't hear the question that was asked of me. He's trying to present as if I was launching a defense of Hitler in Germany, when in fact the question that was presented to me was pertaining to wheher I believed in nationalism, and that nationalism was bad.

"And what I responded is that I do not believe we should be characterizing Hitler as a nationalist," Owens said. "He was a homicidal, psychopathic maniac that killed his own people. A nationalist would not kill their own people. … That was unbelievably dishonest, and he did not allow me to respond to it."

"I think it’s pretty apparent that Mr. Lieu believes that black people are stupid."

>>6114108

A teenage girl in Brazil confessed to torturing her 5-year-old brother to death before eating his severed penis, police said.

Police are investigating the possibility that 18-year-old Karina Roque’s alleged crime against her brother, Maycon Roque, may have been part of a black magic ritual because his body was found on the floor surrounded by several candles.

On Thursday, Maycon Roque’s mother, who is not being named, discovered 18-year-old Karina standing beside her brother’s mutilated remains at their home in Sao Roque, southeast Brazil.

Detectives said the victim’s corpse had grotesque injuries. His head was partially decapitated, there were knife wounds to the wrist, both eyeballs had been pierced, the feet had been burned and the sister claimed she had “cut off her brother’s genital organs and eaten it.”

According to police, the mother went shopping and left her son in the care of her daughter while she was out. When she returned a couple hours later, she discovered the front door locked.

Karina reportedly refused to let her mother in. The desperate woman was only able to gain access after the door was kicked down by her brother-in-law, who lives nearby.

The horrific scene was so macabre that the mother fainted. Karina allegedly tried to escape as her uncle and other relatives attempted to restrain her.

“They tried to prevent her from running but she apparently became very aggressive and started throwing objects,” Detective Anderson Góes told FocusOn News.

“He uncle was hit and injured by a stone and she bit the family dog, which attacked her while she was being restrained by relatives.”

Karina admitted that she lured her brother into her bedroom by pretending they were going to play a game and then suffocated him with a pillow, police said.

Preliminary examinations indicate the child was dead before his body was brutally maimed and his body parts cannibalized.

Forensic investigators reportedly found a burned cellphone, a memory card, a penknife and a small amount of marijuana in the house.

“We believe the cellphone belongs to the suspect and was deliberately damaged by her to possibly destroy any evidence of online contacts,” Góes said.

“We are investigating if the child was killed during some kind of devil worshipping ritual. We want to know if the accused had links on social networks to a group of Satanists or black magic practitioners and if she was encouraged or incited by someone to commit the crime. She will also undergo tests to see if she is under the influence of drugs.”

Both the phone and memory card are being analyzed by officials for additional evidence.

Police said the teen’s family told them Karina never gave them any problems before. They described her as being quiet and reserved and said she’d “always taken care of her brother.”

Karina is charged with her brother’s murder and with the attempted murder of her uncle. She is being held in isolation in a cell at Votorantim Women’s Prison in Sao Paulo and placed on suicide watch.

The victim’s burial took place Friday morning. The family did not wish to be identified or comment on the tragic case.

Turncoat Republicans Help Democrats Abolish Electoral College In Oregon

Thanks to the help of two republicrats, democrats in Oregon have passed the National Popular Vote in the state senate. The bill passed on a 17-12 vote, with a mostly party line vote. The NAYs were 9 republicans, along with democrats Peter Courtney (senate president), Ginny Burdick (senate majority leader), and Betsy Johnson (moderate democrat). The AYEs were all of the democrats, along with two republican turncoats: Chuck Thomsen and Brian Boquist. Another senator was excused for the day.

Boquist and Thomsen are helping the democrats in their efforts to defeat Trump in 2020.

Boquist has previously taken flack from pro gun activists for his role in helping to pass a gun control bill two years ago. His district encompasses a large rural area, stretching from outer western suburbs of Portland, down past Salem, and into the outer west areas of Corvallis. Thomsen represents rural areas to the east of Portland and into the Cascade Mountain Range.

Senate president Peter Courtney has been under fire from the Soros linked National Popular Vote groups because he refused to allow the bill to the floor in the last couple of legislative sessions. Part of Willamette Week’s report reads:

In Oregon, legislation similar to SB 870 has been blocked three times by Senate President Peter Courtney over the last 12 years. Until recently, Courtney maintained that the issue should be brought to Oregon voters.

“If you believe in the popular vote,” Courtney said in September, 2017, “then let the popular vote decide the issue.” The same year, National Popular Vote, Inc., the group pushing for the replacement of the Electoral College, launched an expenditure campaign against Courtney. (National Popular Vote, Inc. is backed by wealthy innovator John Koza, who co-invented the scratch-off lottery ticket.)

Koza’s anti-Courtney campaigning appears to have been successful. Last month, OPB reported, Courtney reneged on his stance and announced he would allow a vote on the bill.

You can reach senator Chuck Thomsen’s office at 503-986-1726.

You can reach senator Brian Boquist’s office at 503-986-1712.

Despite the endless capitulation by republicans to appease democrats, Oregon republicans continue to lose ground, with two House seats and one Senate seat flipping to democrat in the last election.

The bill now moves to the state House, where it has several sponsors. Should it pass the House, it then goes to governor Kate Brown’s desk, where will surely sign off on it and join New Mexico, Delaware, and Colorado as the latest states to join the National Popular Vote pact.

U.S. consumer watchdog says 'all options on table' for enforcing Wells Fargo order

WASHINGTON/NEW YORK (Reuters) - The U.S. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) has told Congress that “all options are on the table” for enforcing a 2018 consent order against Wells Fargo, raising the prospect of potential future penalties or other sanctions against the bank.

In a letter to Democratic Senators Elizabeth Warren and Sherrod Brown published by the lawmakers on Tuesday, CFPB Director Kathy Kraninger said she was unhappy with Wells Fargo’s progress fixing its risk management issues.

“I am not satisfied with the bank’s progress to date and have instructed staff to take all appropriate actions to ensure the bank complies with the consent order and Federal consumer financial law,” she wrote in the letter dated April 5.

“Broadly speaking, I consider all options on the table for enforcing Bureau consent orders,” Kraninger added.

Wells Fargo Wells declined to comment.

In April 2018, the CFPB and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) jointly fined Wells Fargo $1 billion for mis-selling auto loans and mortgage products and ordered the bank to repay harmed customers and fix its controls and processes.

The terms of the consent order give Kraninger and OCC Director Joseph Otting extensive powers to sanction the bank with additional penalties, business restrictions or the removal of bank personnel if they believe it has failed to devise a satisfactory remediation plan.

“The OCC is fully engaged and prepared to ensure Wells Fargo corrects the identified deficiencies,” Otting wrote in a separate April 3 letter to Warren.

Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, also writing to the senators on April 3, repeated his pledge to retain an asset cap the Fed imposed on the bank in February 2018 until it has met its obligations under that separate consent order.

The bank has said it is committed to compensating all customers affected by its actions and has already payed out tens of millions of dollars to make consumers whole.

Netanyahu, main rival Gantz, claim victory in Israeli election

Both Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his main challenger Benny Gantz claimed victory in Israel’s election on Tuesday, with several exit polls giving the veteran right-wing leader an advantage in forming a coalition government.

Netanyahu, in power consecutively since 2009, is fighting for his political survival as he seeks a fifth term. He faces possible indictment in three corruption cases, in which the right-wing Likud party leader has denied any wrongdoing.

Exit polls on two of Israel’s three main TV channels showed Gantz’s centrist Blue and White Party won slightly more seats than Likud in the 120-member parliament, while a third survey forecast a tie.

Part 2: Allison Mack’s plea hearing: Her complete allocution: ‘I hurt good people through my misguided adherence to Keith Raniere’s teachings’

The following is from the transcript of Allison Mack’s plea hearing.

On April 8, 2019, Allison Mack appeared before US District Judge Nicholas Garaufis in Brooklyn Federal Courthouse to withdraw her plea of not guilty to Counts 1 and 2 of the second superseding indictment and plead guilty to those counts.

Counts 1 and 2 are racketeering conspiracy and racketeering.

Her lawyers, Sean Buckley and William McGovern appeared with Mack.

Assistant US Attorneys Moira Kim Penza, Tanya Hajjar, Mark Lesko, AUSA, with the US Attorney’s Office Eastern District of New York, appeared for the prosecution.

After pleading guilty to the two counts the judge required her to make an allocution, in effect to confess on the record that she did indeed commit the crimes she pleaded guilty to a moment before.

[To read what happened prior to her allocution see Part 1: Allison’s guilty plea hearing: The judge explained her rights; the prosecution lays out charges they would have proved at trial]

THE COURT: So at this time, I’d like you to tell me what you did to commit these crimes. And if you are reading a prepared allocution, I would like you to do so slowly. Are you reading —

THE DEFENDANT: Yes, Your Honor.

THE COURT: — your allocution?

THE DEFENDANT: Yes.

THE COURT: Have you discussed your allocution with your attorneys?

THE DEFENDANT: I have, Your Honor.

THE COURT: You viewed it with them?

THE DEFENDANT: Yes, Your Honor.

THE COURT: All right. And you are satisfied that it represents your best statement about what you did; is that right?

THE DEFENDANT: Yes, Your Honor.

THE COURT: Okay. Why don’t you go ahead and read your allocution.

THE DEFENDANT: I am here to plead guilty before Your Honor. [she starts crying]

THE COURT: Do you want to take a moment?

THE DEFENDANT: I’m fine. No. Thank you. Thank you, Joe.

This past year has been one of introspection and self-examination, but, also, a year of understanding and acceptance. It has been a year of looking at what I had done for the past ten years, looking at my relationships with other members of NXIVM, friends, family, and associates, looking closely at the decisions I made, the people I trusted, and, more importantly, those who placed their trust in me. And having done so, I am prepared to take responsibility for acts in which I was involved, some of which I now recognize were wrong.

As Your Honor is aware, I dedicated years of my life to an organization in which I and others truly believed, NXIVM. In the course of my time with NXIVM, I became close with many individuals, many of whom are wonderful people, and some of whom I now realize are not.

Notable: WL: Assange involved in a "new criminal case"

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, who has been holed up in the Ecuadorian embassy in London for nearly seven years, is involved in a “new criminal case,” the organization said late on Tuesday.

WikiLeaks said in an email that it will be holding a press briefing at 11 a.m. London time (6 a.m. ET) on Wednesday. Details about the new case were not immediately disclosed.

“WikiLeaks will be holding a press briefing .. a new, wholly unexpected, criminal case involving Julian Assange escalating current tensions,” the organization said.

WikiLeaks Editor-in-Chief Kristinn Hrafnsson, barrister Jennifer Robinson, and Fidel Narvaez, a former consul of Ecuador to London, are expected to speak at the press briefing, which will be accompanied by an audio-visual presentation.

Last week, WikiLeaks expressed fears that Assange would soon be expelled from the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, but Ecuador’s Foreign Ministry later denied the reports, calling it “false news.”

Additional info on Notable: US Troops slowly being poisoned by lead. The question is how to safely get rid of heavy metal poisoning, which also helps parents of autistic children.

Help from autism-mercury detox research:

Going to post a number of historical links to this blow by blow story as it happened in front of me back in the day, so will break each just before [www-dot]

You will have to put them back together. Thanks for not asking me to direct link.

A number of people, especially men are born with low glutathion production (sort of like being born low insulin production. Women are often carriers, but covered by the extra X chromosome, sort of like color blindness).

Glutathion is what the body makes and uses to get the lead out after or during military service, and mercury heavy metals out after infant shots (or numerous military shots as the case may be).

Glutathion is why not all children become autistic. Over-running glutathion production with more and more shots is why more and more children are being diagnosed with autism. At the time of this story below, [the late 90's] already 1 in 196 children were being diagnosed.

Now, it is 1 in 45 nationally, [CDC statistic] unless you look at a vaccine free population where the numbers run from

1/10,000 (Amish) to

1/751 (non vaccinated with an autistic sibling - high risk population)

We never heard of autism when I was young.

The story as I witnessed it and where to find detox help:

Back in 1999ish I witnessed a Doctor named Amy Holmes, a poison control doctor, as she conversed on line with her pediatrician about her son's recent autism diagnosis.

Back then these conversations were held on public web sites, as there were no discussion groups. I am a biologist. I was lurking, because the subject peaked my interest.

The pediatrician handed Dr Holmes the "autism symptom sheet" at the time of diagnosis, to which Dr. Holmes said:

"You gave me the wrong sheet, these are the symptoms for mercury poisoning."

What she KNEW by HEART to answer poison control phones is on the left column of (pic 1 related).

What the pede doc handed her was in column 2, of (pic 1 related).

Notice the symptoms of mercury poisoning and autism are identical in all respects.

Think for yourself:

Question; how can ANY doctor call a diagnosis of autism without first ruling out mercury poisoning?

Answer. Not one doctor can.

The two women doctors realize this. They give Dr. Holmes son a DMSA push test for heavy metal poisoning like mercury and lead. This test result was given to Dr Holmes [patients mom] by the Pediatrician while standing over the boys hospital bed.

God works in strange ways:

At just the same moment, the hospital TV was on and there were 500 parents in Congress on CSPAN, testifying that their children got autism from the MMR shot. (This is in the congressional record, as I witnessed it myself)

The two women were writing to one another each night.

The doctors both wonder… how many of THOSE kids are poisoned with mercury and no one has bothered to look?

They call the parents in Washington DC, and do DMSA push test on each child. Answer: 86% of the children from Washington testifying parents pissed mercury.

Docs both realize the children can not get mercury out of the system after the baby shots, which is why the tests usually showed up negative. It would not come out in the urine on it's own without help. There was not enough glutathion in the system to push the mercury out.

Big Pharma see's the result as they talk about it (lurking, just like me). Next thing you know there is a bill to prevent parents from suing Big Pharma, and the CDC creates this vaccine fund so WE the PEOPLE can pay for the damage. Big Pharma begins to fund all kinds of research/propaganda showing vaccines do not cause autism. (Which is exactly what I would tell them to do if I was their lawyer)

Needless to say those of us watching this story go down have been pissed for a long time.

‘It’s a massacre’: Rising number of suicides among French police condemned by union

Police unions in France have reacted with “great anger” to the news of two more suspected service suicides over the weekend in the country.

“It's a massacre,” the UNSA-Police union’s Thomas Toussaint told French media. He noted that it took until August last year for the number of suspected or proved officer suicides, currently 25, to reach 2019’s level.

A female officer who worked for a suburban Paris station was found dead with a self-inflicted gunshot wound, according to Le Parisien. Local media in the town of Ales also reported the discovery of the body of a male officer who had disappeared one week previously.

A senate report released last summer looked at the problems facing law enforcement personnel, including grueling schedules, exhaustion, and heightened tensions caused by recent civil unrest, as well as terrorist incidents, and labelled the issue a “true crisis.”

If the current death rate continues unabated, the record for most police deaths per year by suicide – 70, in 1996 – will be topped.

“A policeman kills himself every four days,” the Alternative Police CFDT union said of the recent statistics in a statement expressing its sadness and anger at the recent deaths. “It’s too much.” The union called for a greater initiative to tackle the problem, which it claimed has seen no “real substantive action” taken in 20 years.

Notable: , >>6111883 WH planning to target illegal immigrant's remittance payments

The White House is planning on targeting remittance payments made by illegal immigrants in the wake of an ongoing migrant flood at the U.S. southern border, a senior administration official told reporters Tuesday.

The plans to target remittance payments come amid a broader shakeup at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and future executive actions designed to curb illegal immigration. The situation at the southern border has escalated in recent weeks, with thousands of migrants arriving daily to claim asylum.

Officials say the illegal arrivals are spurred by loopholes in U.S. immigration law that allow family units claiming asylum to arrive illegally and still be released into the interior of the country with a work permit.

The migrants are then given a court date at some point in the future to adjudicate the asylum claim, with the vast majority failing to ultimately get a favorable asylum ruling. These migrants rarely show up for deportation, with the senior administration official calling the practice “backdoor illegal immigration.”

Feds charge 24 in billion-dollar healthcare fraud scheme

April 9 (UPI) – Twenty-four people were charged in a healthcare fraud scheme that targeted the elderly and disabled, and included more than $1.2 billion in losses, the Justice Department said Tuesday. The alleged scheme involved durable medical equipment companies paying "illegal kickbacks and bribes" in exchange for beneficiary referrals from medical professionals working with fraudulent telemedicine companies to fraudulently bill Medicare, the Justice Department said in a statement.

The fraudulent telemedicine companies lured hundreds of thousands of elderly and disabled patients for back, shoulder and knee braces that were not medically necessary, the Justice Department said. The telemarketing network included call centers in the Philippines and Latin America, prosecutors said.

An investigation, which involved more than 80 search warrants across 17 federal districts, resulted in charges against 24 individuals, including officers linked to five telemedicine companies and dozens of durable medical equipment companies, as well as three licensed medical professionals. the Justice Department said. "These defendants – who range from corporate executives to medical professionals – allegedly participated in an expansive and sophisticated fraud to exploit telemedicine technology meant for patients otherwise unable to access health care," Assistant Attorney General Benczkowski said in a statement. Proceeds from plot were laundered through international shell companies and used to pay for luxury cars, yachts and real estate in the United States and overseas, prosecutors said. "This Department of Justice will not tolerate medical professionals and executives who look to line their pockets by cheating our health care programs," Benczkowski said. "I commend the Criminal Division prosecutors and our partners from U.S. Attorney's Offices and law enforcement agencies across the country for their unrelenting efforts to stop this alleged fraud before more money was stolen from American taxpayers." In addition to the charges,the the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services took "adverse administrative action" against 130 durable medical equipment companies responsible for more than $1.7 billion in claims, the Justice Department said.

In South Carolina alone, Andrew Chmiel, 43, of Mt. Pleasant, owner of over a dozen companies involved in the scheme, was charged for his alleged involvement in a $200 million plot related to payments and bribes for unnecessary medical equipment orders. Among those charged also included Creaghan Harry, 51, of Highland Beach, Fla.; Lester Stockett, 51, of Deerfield Beach, Fla.; and Elliot Lowenstern, 56, of Boca Raton, Fla. The three individuals are the owner, CEO and VP of marketing, respectively, of call centers and telemedicine companies, prosecutors said. They face the charges for their alleged participation in a $454 million illegal healthcare kickback and international money laundering scheme related to bribes for referrals of medical equipment orders, prosecutors said.

NYC declares public health emergency, orders mandatory measles vaccinations

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio has declared a state of emergency in response to a measles outbreak in a Brooklyn ultra-Orthodox Jewish community.

April 9 (UPI) – New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio on Tuesday declared a state of emergency in response to a measles outbreak in a Brooklyn ultra-Orthodox Jewish community. The declaration requires people living in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn to receive the measles-mumps-rubella, or MMR, vaccine to help curb the spread of the virus.

The city's health department will check vaccination records of people suspected of making contact with infected patients. Anyone without a vaccination or proof of immunity from the virus could receive a $1,000 fine. Since last October, the community has seen 285 cases of measles, prompting the city to order child care centers and yeshivas in Jewish communities throughout Williamsburg to keep non-vaccinated children from attending until the outbreak subsided. "There's no question that vaccines are safe, effective and life-saving," de Blasio told reporters. "I urge everyone, especially those in affected areas, to get their MMR vaccines to protect their children, families and communities." In January, one yeshiva broke compliance with the city mandate, leading to more than 40 new cases of the measles. Following that outbreak, the health commissioners office issued orders for all yeshivas in Williamsburg to exclude non-vaccinated children from attendance.

"Measles is a highly contagious viral disease that can result in serious health complications, such as pneumonia and swelling of the brain," Oxiris Barbot, commissioner of the New York City Health Department, wrote in the order. "About a third of reported measles cases have at least one complication and in some cases, measles can cause death." So far, most of the cases have affected children under age 18. Only 39 cases involve adults. The order could be lifted as soon as April 17, when the city's health board plans to meet next. Leading into the Passover holiday, when many will gather at temples and homes for services and seders, the health department is calling on New Yorkers, particularly people in the Orthodox Jewish community, to get the MMR vaccine. Health officials are also urging people to vaccinate their children if they plan on traveling to upstate New York, Israel, Europe or other parts of the U.S. where outbreaks are occurring. Throughout the U.S., 465 cases of measles have been reported across 19 states, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

[Part 1 of 2]

Informative article on Herman Cain's tenure at the Kansas City Federal Reserve, first as a director and then chair of the 9-member board. Interesting - a fellow KC Fed board member called him "A family man," which contradicts the MSM characterization of Cain as a serial sexual assaulter.

https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2011/10/herman-cains-fed-years-what-did-he-actually-do.html

Herman Cain: The Fed Years

What did Herman Cain actually do at the Federal Reserve?

By David Weigel

Oct 17, 2011

Herman Cain’s tenure at the Federal Reserve makes many conservatives queasy—even if they can’t agree on what he did there. According to Alex Jones, from 1992 to 1996 Cain was “Kansas City Board President of the Federal Reserve Bank.” According to a Cain fan at Ricochet, Cain was merely a “member of a Federal Reserve District Board.” In his book, This Is Herman Cain!, the candidate calls himself a former “head of the Kansas City Federal Reserve.”

Maybe the mainstream media has figured this out? Maybe not. According to the Atlantic, he was a “Federal Reserve Chairman.” According to the Huffington Post, he was a “director of the Kansas City Fed.” It was Cain’s only high-profile government role, and 15 years after he finished it, the public that might make him president has no idea what it was or meant.

What did Herman Cain do at the Fed, and what does it tell us about him? The answers: “Not much,” and “a little more than not much.”

There are 12 regional Federal Reserve Banks. Each has a nine-member board of directors, composed of three commercial bankers (Class A, in Fed jargon), three people from nonbanking sectors of the economy (Class B), and three captains of industry from the region (Class C). Cain was Class C. In 1992, he joined the board of directors at the Kansas City branch of the Federal Reserve. In 1994, he was chosen to chair the board.

What does the board of directors actually do? Every month that Cain was there, board members would meet, talk through the economic developments and data in their areas, and offer some advice. Fed economists would listen. The research would be taken up to Kansas City Fed President Tom Hoenig, who could use it however he deigned to use it.* “They’re a source of economic information for the bank,” explains Bill Medley, public information director for the Kansas City Fed. What’s their single biggest contribution? They recommend the discount rate, or what the Fed charges for loans. “But that,” says Medley, “has to be approved by the board of governors.”

That means that Cain’s role was chiefly as a charismatic guy who ran meetings well and corralled good advice. He was not an economist. In This Is Herman Cain!, the candidate recalls the Fed job as a Frank Capra-esque affair; a lunch with the branch manager turned into a pitch for an unexpected job.

“I thought: Wow, the Federal Reserve wants me to serve on one of its boards!” writes Cain. “That was something I had never really thought about, but it seemed pretty prestigious.” It was a learning experience, too. “Looking back on my time at the Federal Reserve, it gave me the opportunity to be exposed to macroeconomics.”

Was Cain just some naïf in the ways of high-level Fed policy? Sure. That was the point. His fellow board members would include the head of a petroleum company, a Kansas City housing advocate, and an Oklahoma cattle magnate. Bill McQuillan, the chairman of CNB National Bank in Greeley, Nebraska, overlapped with Cain for three years and shared “puddle jumper” planes with him when they needed to go to the monthly meetings.

“I liked him right away,” remembers McQuillan. “He was a family man. He talked about music a lot. Really, he was a very bright, charismatic guy.”

Cain turned the full power of his charisma on his new part-time job: Making meetings run quickly. “He’d come prepared,” says McQuillan. “His goal was to get all of us engaged in a discussion—maximum participation. He’d open, and say ‘We’ve got these issues to get through. We want to get through them as quickly as possible, and the floor is open for discussion.’ ”

The meetings would last around half a day. “If things were not quite as focused as they should have been, he’d bring them back,” says McQuillan. “He would never make a person feel like they were talking out of turn. He’d say, ‘I appreciate your comments, but in the interest of time, we should move on.’ ”

EXCLUSIVE: Documents Detailing Google’s ‘News Blacklist’ Show Manual Manipulation Of Special Search Results

Google does manipulate its search results manually, contrary to the company’s official denials, documents obtained exclusively by The Daily Caller indicate. Two official policies dubbed the “misrepresentation policy” and the “good neighbor policy” inform the company’s “XPA news blacklist,” which is maintained by Google’s Trust & Safety team. “T&S will be in charge of updating the blacklist as when there is a demand,” reads one of the documents shared with The Daily Caller. “The deceptive_news domain blacklist is going to be used by many search features to filter problematic sites that violate the good neighbor and misrepresentation policies,” the policy document says.

That document reads that it was, “approved by gomes@, nayak@, haahr@ as of 8/13/2018.” Ben Gomes is Google’s head of search, who reports directly to CEO Sundar Pichai. Pandu Nayak is a Google Fellow, and Paul Haahr is a software engineer, whose bio on Google’s internal network Moma indicates that he is also involved in, “fringe ranking: not showing fake news, hate speech, conspiracy theories, or science/medical/history denial unless we’re sure that’s what the user wants.” “The purpose of the blacklist will be to bar the sites from surfacing in any Search feature or news product. It will not cause a demotion in the organic search results or de-index them altogether,” reads the policy document obtained by the Caller. What that means is that targeted sites will not be removed from the “ten blue links” portion of search results, but the blacklist applies to most of the other search features, like “top news,” “videos” or the various sidebars that are returned as search results. The “ten blue links” may not be impacted by the blacklist, but virtually every other kind of Google search result is. While hard numbers are not available for how much traffic is directed through the 10 links versus the other search blocks, since the latter appear so high on the results page, the impact could be significant. “Focus on the user,” said a source at Google who described the program to the Caller. “Users need to trust any content that Google shows them, whether it’s the 10 blue links or other special search results.”

Sundar Pichai testified before the House Judiciary Committee on Dec. 11 of last year. Democratic California Rep. Zoe Lofgren asked why a search for the term “idiot” returned a photo of President Trump. In response, Pichai said, “This is working at scale, we don’t manually intervene on any particular search result.” A memo about the deceptive news blacklist was also obtained by the Caller, showing its last edit as Dec. 3, 2018, a week before Pichai’s congressional testimony. This document, which describes the process by which a site can be blacklisted for deceptive news, clearly shows that there is a manual component.

The Boy Crisis: The Statistics Tell Us That American Boys Are Falling Behind In Just About Every Area

As a society we appear to be really dropping the ball, because the numbers indicate that American boys are deeply struggling in just about every area. Many professionals are pointing to a “crisis of fatherhood” as one of the key factors, and as I pointed out the other day, approximately a third of all U.S. children are now being raised in a home without a father. Of course this negatively affects our girls as well, but there is something about that lack of a masculine role model that seems to particularly hurt boys. However, the lack of a traditional family structure cannot explain all of the numbers that I am about to share with you. As you will see, we are facing a crisis that will not easily be solved.

Warren Farrell, the co-author of a new book entitled “The Boy Crisis: Why Our Boys Are Struggling and What We Can Do About It”, has identified three key areas that he is most concerned about.

The first is education…

It is a crisis of education. Worldwide, 60% of the students who achieve less than the baseline level of proficiency in any of the three core subjects of the Program for the International Assessment are boys. Even boys’ IQs are dropping.

Today, girls are educationally outperforming boys in elementary school, middle school and high school.

And by the time college rolls around, the performance gap is absolutely enormous. In fact, females have earned at least 57 percent of all bachelor’s degrees in the United States for 18 years in a row.

The second area Farrell is deeply concerned about is mental health…

It is a crisis of mental health. Boys’ suicide rate goes from only slightly more than girls before age 14 to three times that of girls’ between 15 and 19, to 4 1/2 times that of girls between 20 and 24. Mass shooters, prisoners and Islamic State terrorism recruits are at least 90% male.

In addition to all of that, males commit 90 percent of all homicides in the United States, and men lead women by a very wide margin in just about every other violent crime category as well.

Canada's golden boy Trudeau sinks in polls as scandal takes toll

When Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau took office in late 2015, he was a political golden boy who seemed destined to build on the legend of his father, who led the country for more than 15 years.

But six months ahead of an October election, polls suggest the 47-year-old politician with the broad smile and a penchant for colorful socks could become the first prime minister to lose power after a single majority mandate since the 1930s.

Trudeau is mired in a relentless scandal over alleged interference in a corporate corruption case that has led to the resignations of two Cabinet members, his top advisor and the head of the federal civil service.

The ruling Liberals have lost 6 percentage points since the start of the year, ceding the lead to the rival Conservatives, according to a Nanos Research poll published on Tuesday.

If an election were held now, the Conservatives would win 34.9 percent of the vote, the Liberals 32.8 percent and the left-leaning New Democratic Party 16.6 percent. The poll suggests the result would be deadlock or a fragile minority government.

"The Liberals have taken a hit, but they're still competitive," said pollster Nik Nanos. "The most significant effect has been the negative impact on the prime minister's personal brand."

An Ipsos poll from last month put the Conservatives at 40 percent, 10 points ahead of the Liberals.

Trudeau, the oldest son of the late Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, has from the start pushed a progressive agenda in support of gender equality, the environment and aboriginal rights, all issues that appeal to his core voters, but which after more than three years sound increasingly scripted to some.

Trudeau is not helped by the optics of the scandal involving SNC-Lavalin Group Inc, a prominent Montreal-based engineering and construction firm that has been accused of bribing Libyan officials to get contracts between 2001 and 2011.

The prime minister has been on the defensive over allegations government officials inappropriately pressured Canada's former Justice Minister Jody Wilson-Raybould to drop a criminal case against the company in favor of a deferred prosecution agreement, or out-of-court settlement.

Wilson-Raybould, the first indigenous justice minister in Canadian history, resigned over the scandal. Former Treasury Board chief Jane Philpott also quit in protest. They were two of the highest-profile women in Trudeau's Cabinet.

Notable: Information on POTUS' pick for next Army vice chief: Gen. James McConville.

Here’s President Trump’s pick for the next Army vice chief

With Gen. James McConville likely heading to his next role as the Army’s top officer, there were a handful of senior-ranking generals who could have filled his shoes.

The top choice is Lt. Gen. Joseph Martin, currently the director of the Army staff, according to a nomination from the president sent to the Senate Armed Services Committee on Monday.

He would pin on a fourth star later this year, as Joint Chiefs chairman nominee Gen. Mark Milley vacates the Army chief of staff role, and, in all likelihood, McConville moves into that job.

Martin, 56, is a career armor officer who graduated from the United States Military Academy in 1986. He most recently commanded the 1st Infantry Division at Fort Riley, Kansas, a job he was thrust into after the previous division commander was relieved amid a misconduct investigation.

That job came with a fifth deployment to Iraq, he told Army Times in 2016.

“It comes with the territory. It’s part of what we do,” he said. “I think there’s a natural human tendency that when you leave, you say, let’s hope we set the conditions so that this is the last time. Every time we come here we want to get it right and that’s my endeavor this time as well. I think we’re well on our way to do it.”

Martin and his troops went on to lead the coalition of Iraqi forces who liberated Mosul from the Islamic State as the commander of Operation Inherent Resolve’s Combined Joint Forces Land Component Command.

A confirmation hearing has not yet been scheduled, according to the Senate calendar.

Rep. Devin Nunes has filed a $150 million lawsuit against McClatchy for derailing his probe into Clinton campaign corruption and ‘Russian interference’ with claims about prostitutes and cocaine, sparking extreme Twitter trolling.

The suit filed in a Virginian state court on Monday court alleges a McClatchy reporter conspired with Republican consultant Liz Mair, in order to impede Nunes’ efforts to investigate “corruption by the Clinton campaign and alleged ‘collusion’ between the Trump campaign and Russia during the 2016 presidential election.”

Mair is accused of conspiring with reporter MacKenzie Mays to spread misleading smears, including reports that Nunes (R-CA), a member of the House Intelligence Committee, “was involved with cocaine and underage prostitutes” at a fundraising event on a yacht.

FBI Court Docs Reveal Comey’s Memos Contained Classified Information – Including Name of Confidential Source Used Against Trump

Newly released FBI court docs confirm James Comey was indeed a witness in the Mueller investigation and his Trump memos were of interest in the special counsel probe.

“The FBI and the Special Counsel’s office have determined that disclosure of the Comey Memos … could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the pending Russia investigation. The Comey Memos are his contemporaneous notes about incidents that are of interest in that investigation …”

According to the court filing released late Monday, Comey’s memos contained classified information (contrary to Comey’s claims), including the name [redacted] of the confidential source the FBI used against Trump.

The documents also suggest then-FBI Director James Comey began his coup against President Trump because he didn’t like his foreign-policy decisionmaking.

The documents were released as part of a FOIA lawsuit filed by Judicial Watch, CNN, USA Today and others against the FBI in an effort to make Comey’s Trump memos public.

A couple weeks ago, US District Judge James Boasberg in Washington ordered the FBI to turn over Comey’s ‘Trump memos’ — both clean and redacted versions by April 1st as he weighed releasing them to the public.

The FBI previously pushed back on March 1st and wrote to Judge Boasberg, an Obama appointee, saying that the memos were still redacted and classified and should remain under seal to avoid interfering with Mueller’s inquisition — Mueller’s witch hunt ended a few weeks ago so the judge asked the FBI to file an opinion about the release of Comey’s memos.

David Archey, the lead FBI investigator for Mueller’s witch hunt told the court that since the special counsel investigation has concluded, portions of Comey’s memos can be released — David Archey informed the court that material from Comey’s memos will continue to remain under seal and redacted.

The FBI will file a further declaration on or before April 15, 2019, to explain why the remaining redactions to the Third Archey Declaration continue to be necessary.

Notable: Gen. John Hyten has been nominated as the next vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

The head of U.S. Strategic Command, or STRATCOM, has been nominated as the next vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, according to Air Force’s top civilian.

Air Force Secretary Heather Wilson told audiences at the Space Symposium in Colorado on Tuesday that STRATCOM commander Gen. John Hyten has been nominated for the position.

Hyten would take over from Air Force Gen. Paul Selva, who is retiring.

The move to elevate Hyten comes at a time when the Defense Department is focused heavily on expanding its space assets.

As STRATCOM chief, Hyten has emphasized the need for nuclear modernization and expanded communications, as well as the growing demand for improved defenses in space against near-peer adversaries such as Russia and China.

Since assuming the position in 2016, Hyten has said space is his "third priority," with "nuclear first, nuclear command-and-control second."

He has said he is grateful the Trump administration is creating a Space Force and associated components to deal with emerging threats from adversaries in space.

"The president said we need a structure inside the Pentagon focused on space all the time, and I support that structure," Hyten said during a March 28 House Armed Services Subcommittee on Strategic Forces hearing. "I think the most important thing we can do in the near term [is] to stand up a new unified command, moving space out from under my command, out from under U.S. Strategic Command, and creating a new U.S. Space Command focused 100 percent of the time on the space problem.

"Space will never be higher than my third priority. I get to spend so little time on space because I have to focus on the nuclear capability," he added.

Prior to his current post, Hyten was vice commander and then commander of Air Force Space Command at Peterson Air Force Base, Colorado, between 2012 and 2016, according to his official biography.

He has fought for other modernization programs, including the UH-1N Huey helicopter replacement program, which has been in the works for more than a decade. Last year, Hyten stressed the move is long overdue for STRATCOM, which uses the aging Huey helicopter for aerial protection of its missile sites.

"We are going to get a new helicopter in the missile fields," he said Aug. 1 during his opening remarks at the 2018 STRATCOM Deterrence Symposium in Omaha, Nebraska. "We are going to get a new helicopter if I have to die trying or if I have to kill somebody to do it. It is taking way too long."

In September, the Air Force chose Boeing Co. to build the Huey replacement at a cost of approximately $2.38 billion.

If confirmed, Hyten will serve with Army Chief of Staff Gen. Mark Milley. In December, Trump nominated Milley to succeed Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Gen. Joseph Dunford.

IMF says global economy cooling, coordinated stimulus may be needed

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The global economy is slowing more than expected and a sharp downturn could require world leaders to coordinate stimulus measures, the International Monetary Fund said on Tuesday as it cut its forecast for world economic growth this year.

The global lender’s semi-annual World Economic Report pointed to the U.S.-China trade war and a potentially disorderly British exit from the European Union as key risks and warned that chances of further cuts to the outlook were high.

Some major economies, including China and Germany, might need to take short-term actions, the IMF said.

“This is a delicate moment for the global economy,” IMF chief economist Gita Gopinath said in a news conference to discuss the report.

Governments may need to open their pocketbooks at the same time “across economies” if the slowdown becomes more serious, Gopinath said, adding that loose monetary policy might also be needed.

NYC Mandates Vaccines in Measles Outbreak, Threatening Fines

A measles outbreak in the Orthodox Jewish community of Williamsburg, Brooklyn, has prompted New York City to declare a public health emergency, requiring residents to be vaccinated with the measles-mumps-rubella vaccine or face a $1,000 fine.

The highly contagious and potentially deadly virus has afflicted 285 New Yorkers since October, including 246 children, almost all of them in the tightly knit Orthodox Jewish community, in one of the city’s most dense neighborhoods. Twenty-one have been hospitalized, with five requiring intensive care, said city Health Commissioner Oxiris Barbot.

Health department workers will check vaccination records of people who may have been in contact with infected patients, and those who haven’t received the vaccine or don’t have evidence of immunity will be given an opportunity to get vaccinated before being hit with a violation, Mayor Bill de Blasio said. City health clinics will provide free vaccinations, he said.

“The outbreak could especially spread because soon it will be Passover and families will be together,” de Blasio said. “So we are taking urgent steps right now to make sure we can stop this. It’s not our goal to issue a violation. Whenever people comply promptly, we will not levy fines.”

Barbot said she was particularly concerned about “measles parties,” in which parents encourage children to play with others who have contracted the virus, a practice she said was dangerous.

“They have been spreading dangerous misinformation based on fake science,” Barbot said. “I understand that parents may be afraid of having their children vaccinated. The vaccine has been proven to be safe and effective against measles since the 1960s.”

The public-health emergency declaration followed the city Health Department last week reinforcing an order it issued in December. That original order warned all yeshivas and day-care programs in Williamsburg that they would face violations and possible closure if they failed to exclude unvaccinated students. Nothing in Talmudic law prohibits vaccination, Barbot said.

Officials say they have been alarmed by the disease’s rapid spread. In 2017, the city had two reported cases. A year later the total jumped to 56, and since January the city has recorded 229.

“It’s a very localized problem,” de Blasio said, adding that the Health Department would send “disease detectives” into the Williamsburg neighborhood to trace contacts that individuals may have had with infected patients. “We need to reach out to every family here.”

All 50 states require children to be immunized against diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis; polio; measles and rubella. Forty-nine states plus Washington D.C. also require mumps and chickenpox vaccinations, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Forty-three states and Washington D.C. also require hepatitis B vaccinations. Some states have imposed fines on violators, and New York’s public-health laws empower the health department to issue such penalties in a public-health emergency.

Measles is highly contagious and can cause severe complications such as pneumonia, encephalitis and even death, according to the city Health Department. It’s preventable with the MMR vaccine. Newborns, pregnant individuals and those with weakened immune systems cannot get vaccinated. So it’s important that everyone around them be vaccinated in order to protect the vulnerable from contracting the virus and prevent severe complications in susceptible populations, according to a health department advisory.
